Abstract | Nonunion rate of first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP) joint arthrodesis is reportedly less than 6%, regardless of fixation type. Robust modern plating constructs aim to decrease incidence of nonunion while also allowing early postoperative weight-bearing. Quicker transition to weight-bearing postoperatively increases patient adherence, decreases adjacent joint stiffness, and reduces risk of deep vein thrombosis in the postoperative period. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect tibial sesamoid fixation has on first MTP joint arthrodesis. |
